Abstract

The process of formation and disappearance of an ionospheric “hole” in the F2 layer caused by the ejection of water molecules during the flight of a space vehicle has been considered using the method of computational experiment based on the mathematical ionospheric-magnetospheric model in a coordinate system fixed on the magnetic force line of the Earth.
